Chapter 172 CERN
At the end of the month, CERN was held as scheduled in the largest staircase room on the R1 floor.
Arriving early, Academician Lu glanced at his watch, then looked at Yan Xinjue, who was sitting next to him, and asked, "What about your junior brother?" ”
Yan Xinjue was also puzzled, shook his head and said, "I didn't see him." ”
I ran to knock on the door early in the morning, but no one opened the door, and I didn't know if I didn't wake up or ran somewhere.
The meeting is about to start, although this kind of meeting is not like the lectures in the school, but this kind of high-level meeting where many bigwigs will come to the stage to report the results, and missing it is undoubtedly more than losing a few credits.
Sitting next to him was Academician Gao Yuanping of Shuimu University, and when he saw that there was an empty seat next to Academician Lu, he smiled and teased: "Old Lu, I hear you blow your apprentice every day, why didn't I see you bring him here." ”
Academician Lu shook his head: "Who knows what that kid is doing all day long, regardless of him." ”
Soon, the staircase room fell silent, and CERN's director, Lynn Evans, stepped up to the podium in front of him and read out the opening remarks of the meeting.
"Thanks to the contributions of collaborative groups from various research institutes and laboratories around the world to this experiment, after several years of unremitting exploration, we finally discovered the pentaquark particle Pc+. After 12 years of experimentation, the edifice of the Standard Model crumbles, and we find that the theory we are proud of doesn't explain everything, but luckily, this time it's correct, and the Standard Model once again predicts its existence......"
“…… Regarding the physical properties of Pc+ particles, it has been completed by the LHCb International Research Cooperation Group, and I will not talk about unnecessary nonsense, so I will invite the heads of each cooperation group to come to the stage to make a report. ”
There was applause in the room, Evans nodded slightly, and then gave the microphone to the head of the LHCb International Research Collaboration Group, who had been waiting for a long time.
Academician Gao, who was sitting in the audience, slowly got up, nodded to Academician Lu, who was sitting next to him, and walked through the aisle to the backstage of the conference room.
As the person in charge of the Huaguo research group, he will speak on behalf of the scientific researchers from Huaguo and report on the work of the full-spectrum analysis.
walked to the backstage of the conference room, and just as Academician Gao was about to find someone to ask when he would enter, he suddenly found a somewhat familiar face in the conference room.
The other party apparently saw him too, smiled at him kindly, stood up and took the initiative to say hello.
"Hello Academician Gao!"
"Hello, may I ask what you are ......"
"My name is Lu Zhou!"
Walking up to say hello to Academician Gao, Lu Zhou grinned.
Although his heart was full of nervousness, he controlled his emotions well, at least not showing this nervousness on his face.
There is no way, this is completely different from the academic conference in Princeton, almost half of the bigwigs in the field of theoretical physics are sitting here, and there are several academicians engaged in theoretical physics research in China, not to mention those who have won the Nobel Prize.
Whether it is the level or the standard, this kind of international report conference is not comparable to an academic conference of an exchange nature.
What's more, the state at this time is not the same as then.
"Lu Zhou...... Are you a master's degree led by Academician Lu Shenjian? A hint of surprise appeared on Gao Yuanping's face, but soon the surprise followed, "Why did you come here?" ”
Lu Zhou smiled, sighed and said, "...... That's a long story. ”
However, just as he was about to explain the matter in detail, a CERN staff member suddenly pushed the door and walked in.
"Is Academician Gao Yuanping here?"
"It's me." Academician Gao nodded.
The staff member said respectfully: "It will be your turn to come to the stage to make a report immediately, please come with me...... Don't know if it's convenient for you right now? ”
“…… Take me, of course. ”
Nodding to the staff member, Academician Gao gave Lu Zhou a strange last look, but didn't say anything more, and followed the staff member away.
……
Standing on the podium, Academician Gao routinely reported on the work of the China Cooperation Group on full-spectrum analysis and answered questions from several questioners.
Back in the backstage lounge, he was about to talk to the interesting master's student, only to find that the person was gone.
“…… It's weird. ”
With a stomach full of questions, Academician Gao left the lounge, returned to the venue, and walked to his place and sat down.
Glancing at the empty space next to his old friend, Academician Gao whispered in a casual tone.
"Guess who I ran into in the break room?"
Academician Lu looked at him suspiciously.
"Who did you touch?"
Academician Gao smiled and said, "You student." ”
Academician Lu subconsciously glanced to the side and found that Yan Xinjue was still sitting there, and then looked back with a strange expression.
"You mean...... Lu Zhou's kid? ”
"yes." Academician Gao nodded.
Academician Lu asked in surprise, "Why did he run there?" ”
Academician Gao shook his head: "I also feel strange, I was trying to ask that kid what was going on, but when I came back, he disappeared again." ”
Academician Lu's eyebrows raised slightly, and he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say where.
But soon, he put the matter aside.
Because, the meeting has already entered the next link.
The report on the full spectrum analysis results and various physical properties of the "Pc+" particles has come to an end, and the next step is a report on the various discoveries made in the LHC experiment.
Most of the people who came to the stage were researchers who participated in the experiment, and most of these people came from CERN, as well as various research units and laboratories of LHC.
After all, the experimental data produced by collision experiments to explore a certain particle is not necessarily all about the target particle, and there are always some interesting new discoveries in the random collision of proton beams.
Some of these new discoveries are useful and some are not, and whether they are useful or not will need to be discussed by theoretical physicists.
It can even be said that the second half of the conference is the most interesting for all the researchers involved in the project, compared to the previous part of the report on the various research work that has been completed.
If a new discovery is confirmed to be of great value, it may even change CERN's established research plan and become the next experimental direction for the Hadron Collider.
A small notebook was found in his pocket, and Academician Lu put on his glasses and was about to memorize something.
However, at this moment, he was suddenly stunned.
He wasn't the only one who was stunned.
There are also Yan Xinjue sitting next to him, Academician Gao sitting on the other side of him, and doctoral students at Mizuki University, all the researchers of the LHCb Huaguo Cooperation Group......
Because the person standing on the stage is none other than him.
It was his student who—
Land boat.
……
On the other side, Peter Higgs and Frank Wilzek, two Nobel lausates, were sitting together, chatting about the content of the briefing just now.
"Do you think LHCb's recent discoveries will lead to a Nobel Prize?"
Hearing his old friend's question, Peter Higgs thought for a while, shook his head and said: "There is no doubt that this is the most valuable research achievement of this year, and the nomination for the Nobel Prize may be enough, but I am afraid it is still a little difficult to win the prize." This year's medal should be awarded to neutrino oscillation, next year's medal will have to take care of condensed matter physics, the Nobel Committee owes Solis a medal that has been delayed for too long, and this time it should not drag on...... Want to make a bet? ”
"Ahem, no," Frank coughed awkwardly when he heard the gamble, "I've quit recently, at least don't come to me for this month." ”
"Unbelievable, you actually quit, what happened?" Peter Higgs glanced at his old friend in surprise, he didn't often visit Twitter, and he didn't know what had been hyped up lately.
"It's nothing, it's just a little unpleasant, let's not talk about it," Frank cleared his throat and diverted the subject, "listen to the next briefing, the main thing is next." ”
"Oh? Is there anything else to look forward to? Peter Higgs asked casually.
"Of course, I'm sure you'll be blown away by that discovery," Frank said with a grin, slightly smug expression, "I'd bet $100." ”
